distributive property: (a) (b + c) = (a)·b + (a)·c
so (-7) (5 + 10) =

Which expression is equivalent to this one?
6(x – 17)
A.
6x – 17
B.
6x · (–17)
C.
6x – 6 · 17
D.
6 + x – 17
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
same idea as before :)
distributive property: a(b - c) = ab - a·c
so 6(x–17) =
OpenStudy (anonymous):
6x17?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
or no

subtracting x -17 right
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
yes there is a subtraction :)
so the end result would be something like 6x - 6 times 17

Rewrite the expression by using grouping symbols.
y • 4 + y • z
A.
y (4 + z)
B.
z(y • 4)
C.
y • (4 + y) • z
D.
4(y + z)
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
same idea and now just reversed :)
so distributive property: a·b + a·c = a(b + c)
like take the thing that they have in common and put it out front :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so its c

not quite :)
for example if it was y·7 + y·x
then it would become y (7 + x)

i see
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i think i got answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
lol never mind
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
lol well you can take a guess ;)

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
ok :)
then 6 times 8 = ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
48
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
then 48 + 2 = ?
(the "2" is from the "24")

last question
OpenStudy (anonymous):
What is the solution to the equation?
5(8 + 7) = 5 • x + 5 • 7
A.
x = 1
B.
x = 5
C.
x = 7
D.
x = 8
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
remember a few problems before when I showed you
for example if it was y·7 + y·x
then it would become y (7 + x)
then what would 5•x + 5•7 become? :)

Distributive Property...
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
5(8 + 7) = 5 • x + 5 • 7 distribute
40 + 35 = 5x + 35 subtract 35 from both sides
-35 -35
40 = 5x divide both sides by 5
so x = 40 divided by 5 = (simplify)
